Timothy Smith

Wiarton, Ontario

In 1986 Timothy was studying electrical engineering at University of Toronto when his wife-to-be gave him pottery lessons for Christmas. It was love at first pot! After graduating from UT, he went to Sheridan College for a three year ceramics program. Timothy has owned and operated Gleason Brook Pottery since 1999.

“I hope my pots are filled with admirable qualities – Usefulness, Simplicity, Strength, Humility. I believe that living with objects of utilitarian beauty can enhance the enjoyment of each day. I try to make pots which satisfy that belief.
